about Is acres, which is in the high
est state of cultivation. And finally a
tract of fine timberland of Ill acres.
covered with the very best of pine
timber. The whole will be offered for

Some people-business people, too
think that it doesn't pay 10 bring a
crowd to town, says the Sunoury Dem
Ocrdt, and they regard the few dollars
grudgingly given to any such e.ter-
prise as thrown away. Sihce Hunting
don had its big blow out" last Sep
tember we find the following in one of
our exchanges
"Does 1t pay 10 boom your town ?
Does it pay 10 get up excitement? Does
it pay To have Board Of Trade? In
answer To this we CHE the recent cen
tennial at Huntinldon. The General
Committee closed up its financial mat
ters on Friday night last and reported
as follows: The total expenses reached
Sl700, of which 500 was for fireworks,
1926 for balloon ascensions. $3.50 for
music $500 for printing and the bal
ance for incidtnials. IL is estimated
that between $50 900 and Sl00,000 was
left in the town 10y visitors. One jewel
er sold $500 worth of goods in five
days and "a clothier is said TO haye sold
$1,000 worth on Wednesday. The other
merchants did proportionally."
TIE Journal has in several of its
former issues limited that mex, year is
the time for Millheim's centennial. the
town being then 100 years old, and as
we will strongly advocate AN appropri-
ate celebration of the event in future
issues, we advise our business men and
all other citizens to cut Huntington s
financial centennial statement out aud
pin it into their hats for future refer
ence. More anon.
Notwithstanding the cold and dis
agreeable weather on last Saturday the
Millheim band left town at 8 O'Clock, a.
M, sharp, to make the trip to Logans-
vile, Clinton county and attend the
baud festival there. They were exactly
three hours on the roadireaching their
destination precisely at II O'Clock.
They were very cordially received by
the LogaDsviile band, as well as by the
citizens of that burg and were at once
conducted to the dinner tables in the
hall, where the boys did full justice to
the good things spread out before them.
] lie Salona band was also on hand ar d
their appetites seemed equally as keen.
In the afternoon the clouds which
hung over the sky all forenoon broke
and old Sol gladened the hearts Of the
Logansvlle band boys by his laughing
sunbeams. Orders were .hen issued
for street parade of the three bands
and it was indeed a sight worth seeing
and Il treat worth hearing. For an
hour the town fairly echoed with the
lively marches which the :hree bands
| played alternately. In the evening a
sumptuous supper was partaken of and
after supper the large crowd of people
| which gathered in the hall TO pat
ronize the festival were splendidly
tanned by some select music from the
Salona and Millheim bands. When the
day was nearly spent and the two visit
ing bands were about ready to depart
for home it was agreed by all the
members that they had a genuine good
time and.they could not speak highly
enough of the royal entertainment and
hospitable treatment received at the
hands of the Logansvlle band and citi-
zens. 1t was indeed good to be there
and we are also glad to report that the
Logansville band realized snug sum
out of their festival.
